Summary
Hi! I'm interested in starting my own teashop. I have been in nonprofit fund development for the past five years, and know a lot about marketing and raising money, managing volunteers and motivating people. I love tea, and I would love to create a place where people can relax and have something delicious. I don't know about managing a beverage place, managing employees and running a business. I would love your advice!
